Re: [scala-language] The cake’s problem, dotty des ign and the approach to modularity.

Indeed.  The emails are too much stream of consciousness, not enough
tutorial with examples.  The latter are really necessary to clarify
thinking--often they will help clarify your own thinking as under-examined
issues tend to come up when you force yourself to make a fully-working
example with all steps explained at least in brief.

A blog is probably a better venue.  (Or if you want to develop theory, you
could use a GitHub repository, so you can gradually change and extend the
reasoning and examples with good tools for looking at the history, etc..)
